Taking the time during the winter lockdown to go over and rediscover his wealth of records, Waxist musters up a blend of downtempo joints from the depth of his shelves. The Lyon based collector runs Sol Discos alongside Pascal Rioux and has collaborated with quality releases on Favourite Recordings, Kalakuta Soul Records and Cultures Of Soul to name a few. With an emphasis on the slower numbers for this selection, Waxist moves across the sphere from Gospel to private pressed Reggae, looping it all together in a seamless fashion. Fetch yourself some fine nectar and settle in.

GE-OLOGY's exclusive mix for Rainbow Disco Club 2022 podcast:

If I had to choose one word to describe the theme of the mix, it would be TRAVELING. But conceptually, it's more about traveling in ALL its various forms...physically, spiritually, mentally and emotionally. Two years ago, the entire world came to a standstill due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and traveling came to an abrupt stop across the planet in response. Nation after nation closed its borders throughout numerous continents, and soon everyone found themselves confined at home isolated from each other, and our loved ones. And that experience has forever changed us. That alone is another form of traveling...one of pain, difficulty and growth that takes us to new places inside ourselves, even when we're not physically flying across oceans, or gathering with our beloved family and friends (due to social distancing guidelines, quarantines and safety restrictions). But life is a constant journey, so traveling (in a sense) has been a recurring theme for me in all the creative forms of my visual and musical expression, as well as throughout my life's experiences. [Traveling = Movement = Growth = Evolving = Rebirth]. Our journeys continue to shape who we are.

So the mix begins with an introductory exchange between Zenigata Keibu and Mine Fujiko (excerpt from Lupin III) which brings forth the subject of traveling--as the Inspector is in constant yet futile pursuit of Lupin (who had already left on a trip just ahead of Inspector Zenigata's arrival). This Japanese manga series cult classic, inspired by Arsène Lupin (the gentleman thief and detective character created by French writer Maurice LeBlanc) felt like the perfect dialogue to use as the introduction for the deep and heavy mix of vinyl selections to follow. The mix features some special records from my collection, amassed from decades of diggin' around the world [Japan included], which in itself is a byproduct of many great opportunities to travel--for which I'm deeply grateful. The 2nd record I play in the mix, aptly titled "Everybody's On A Trip" by Garden of Eden (the brainchild of gifted Birmingham, Alabama musician Ken Talley), was originally released as a single with limited local success back in 1979. Largely unknown for 28 years, it would later become a highly sought-after 7-inch for DJs and record collectors after Kon and Amir's 'Off Track' series release in 2007 put it on the map. But the mix delves even deeper with a mixture of other rare and obscure records (that have now become quite expensive), private pressings, and even some cheap 'under-the-radar' HEAT that spans the late 70s and early 80s, right up to the present. With a focus towards music lovers, dancers, audiophiles and collectors alike, it builds up slowly and seamlessly into a full-fledged dance-floor experience, navigating through the worlds of jazz, funk, disco, soul, island-funk, post-punk, Brazilian and beyond. It's a celebration of the world reopening again, and finally getting the opportunity to appreciate music together and dance at Rainbow Disco Club. Enjoy!

RDC 034 - GE-OLOGY - Exclusive MIX for Rainbow Disco Club in Japan !

Next up in our Digging Deeper and Record Club guest mix series is a belter from ROAM, aka Mike O’Mara and Danny Lynn. Hailing from Manchester and Sheffield, these two seasoned collectors / DJs have delivered us a mighty fine mix that is a masterful blend of music styles from across the globe. There's street soul, Brazilian heat, African funk, Turkish funk, kwaito, boogie and all sorts of the good stuff up in the mix. A real DJ's DJ type affair.

Founded in 1996 by Peter Adarkwah, Barely Breaking Even (BBE Music) started life as a London club night, taking its name from the eponymous Disco record by the Universal Robot Band.

The label grew from the vibrant early 90's club scene with its first release, Stop & Listen compiled by Dr Bob Jones in 1996, opening the door to iconic series' such as All Back To Mine & Late Nite Tales.

A tonne of releases followed, ranging from Disco to Funk, Jazz to House. In the year 2000, the label celebrated Masters at Work's 10th Anniversary with a mighty box set that featured near 80 tracks.

A year later BBE Music spawned the Beat Generation Series of artist albums, notably introducing J Dilla (Welcome 2 Detroit) & a young Will.I.Am's first solo outing, alongside DJ Jazzy Jeff, Madlib & DJ Spinna, all of whom contributed to this seminal set of long players.

A quarter of a century and well over 500 titles later, having worked with Mark Ronson, Roy Ayers, Questlove, Hugh Masekela, DJ Premier, Dimitri from Paris, Joey Negro, Kon, RZA, Laurent Garnier, Black Coffee, DJ Shadow, David Rodigan and John Morales among many others, BBE Music looks to the future, celebrating its rich heritage while continuing to release a bounty of fresh titles.

The label’s most recent projects include an expansive reissue series from pioneering Nigerian label Tabansi, new imprint ‘Batakari’ in association with Boddhi Satva and the critically acclaimed ‘J Jazz’ Japanese Jazz multi-album project, not to mention the recent landmark 500th label release: a brand new version of 'Barely Breaking Even', featuring Leroy Burgess, Patrick Adams and Louie Vega.

In 2021 BBE Music is celebrating its 25th anniversary. To mark this milestone, the label is offering up some special projects, from the 20th Anniversary edition of J Dilla’s ‘Welcome 2 Detroit’, through David Bowie tribute album ‘Modern Love’, to a special new ‘Worldwide’ compilation from old friend Gilles Peterson. BBE Music will also be looking to the future with more exciting original artist projects, plus merch collaborations events and more...
